		 ENTERGY REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER
			 OPERATIONAL EARNINGS

NEW ORLEANS -   Entergy Corporation reported solid second quarter 2002
operational  earnings of $1.17 per share compared with  $1.06  in  the
same  period of 2001, reflecting increased earnings from both  utility
operations and Entergy's non-utility nuclear business.  Second quarter
2002  results  set a new record for the company and  were  10  percent
higher  than  the same period one year ago.  On an as reported  basis,
Entergy  reported  income  of $1.06 per  share,  an  amount  equal  to
earnings  for  the same period in 2001.  Second quarter 2002  reported
results reflected a special charge in connection with costs associated
with  the  restructuring  of  Entergy's  wholesale  power  development
business.

"Operating  results reflect the positive impact of some  strengthening
of the economy in the utility's service territory and continued strong
performance in Entergy Nuclear" said J. Wayne Leonard, Entergy's chief
executive officer.  "We're delivering on the commitments we have  made
to our stakeholders, and we have not allowed the disruptive activities
in the sector to distract us.  Four years ago we said we were going to
deliver   superior  financial  results  by  focusing   on   our   core
competencies, providing outstanding customer service, and  maintaining
sound financial integrity.  We've met, and in most instances exceeded,
these  goals  and  we're  committed to pursuing  excellence  with  the
highest  level  of ethics and integrity in our business practices  and
safety in our operations."

U.S. Utility

In  second quarter 2002, as reported and operational utility  earnings
were  $0.85 per share, compared to $0.74 in second quarter 2001.   The
increase in earnings quarter to quarter resulted primarily from higher
revenues due to increased sales volume reflecting both modest customer
growth  and  higher usage levels.  Operation and maintenance  expenses
were significantly higher during second quarter 2002 due primarily  to
previously deferred ice storm costs being expensed as a result of  the
settlement  reached with the Arkansas Public Service  Commission.   As
noted  in  footnote  (a) to Table 8, the net income  impact  of  these
expenses  was  essentially offset by revenues recorded  in  accordance
with  the  regulatory  settlement.   After  excluding  the  ice  storm
settlement  costs,  operation and maintenance expenses  were  modestly
higher  in  2002 compared to 2001 due primarily to spending in  fossil
and  nuclear generation.  For the year 2002, operation and maintenance
expenses are projected to be slightly higher compared to 2001  levels.
However,  improved  sales  and revenues driven  primarily  by  a  more
positive  economic environment is expected to more than overcome  this
increase.

Higher usage in second quarter 2002 increased residential sales  by  7
percent, compared to second quarter 2001.  Commercial and governmental
sales  were  up  3  percent,  reflecting increased  usage  across  all
commercial  customer classes, while industrial sales experienced  a  4
percent  reduction quarter over quarter.  The reduction in  industrial
sales  was  due exclusively to the impact of contractual modifications
which  reclassified  certain  industrial  customers  from  retail   to
wholesale.    After  removing  the  impact  of  the  reclassification,
industrial  sales  reflected  an increase  of  1.5  percent  resulting
primarily from increased usage in the petroleum refining sector.   The
increase  in  usage across retail customer classes, which totaled  3.6
percent after the above reclassification, as well as the growth in the
number  of  customers  during the quarter, demonstrate  some  economic
recovery  beginning to take hold in the Entergy service territory.   A
summary  of sales volumes by customer class is included in Appendix  A
to this release.

events and regulatory recovery mechanisms by operating subsidiary.

Parent & Other

Parent  &  Other recorded an as reported loss per share of $(0.02)  in
second quarter 2002, compared with earnings of $0.03 in second quarter
2001.   The  loss  in second quarter 2002 was due primarily  to  lower
interest income earned in 2002 resulting from lower yields on invested
cash and higher corporate expenses in the current quarter.

Competitive Businesses

As  reported  earnings  were  $0.23  per  share  for  the  competitive
businesses in second quarter 2002 compared to $0.29 in the same period
of  2001.   Second  quarter  2002 results  include  a  special  charge
totaling  $(0.11)  which reflects asset impairments and  restructuring
costs  in  connection  with the wholesale power development  business.
The  $(0.11)  net  charge also includes an offsetting  gain  of  $0.10
primarily  associated  with the sale of certain assets  in  connection
with  the  restructuring  process.   Excluding  this  special  charge,
operational  earnings increased 17 percent, from $0.29  per  share  in
second quarter 2001 to $0.34 in second quarter 2002.  This increase in
operational  earnings reflects continued strong  performance  in  non-
utility  nuclear  operations which served to more  than  offset  lower
results from Energy Commodity Services.

Entergy Nuclear

Entergy  Nuclear  (EN)  earned $0.24 per share compared  to  $0.15  in
second   quarter  2001.   The  increase  was  due  primarily  to   the
contribution  in  2002  of  Indian Point  2,  which  was  acquired  in
September  2001, as well as higher overall output levels  due  to  the
absence  of  refueling  outages in 2002.  Two refueling  outages  were
conducted  during second quarter 2001; none were conducted  in  second
quarter  2002.   EN's  average capacity factor was  98.5  percent  for
second quarter 2002 as compared to 77.8 percent for the same period in
2001 reflecting the timing of plant refuelings.

EN   continues  to  achieve  excellent  operational  performance.   EN
expanded  its production capacity by 39 percent and its output  by  77
percent  quarter  over  quarter.  Average production  costs  increased
quarter  to  quarter  due  primarily to  the  inclusion  of  amortized
refueling  outage  costs in 2002 for the Pilgrim and  Indian  Point  3
units.   Currently,  EN  has sold 100 percent of  the  output  of  its
generating  assets through the end of 2002 at prices that  range  from
$29 to $51 per megawatt hour.

Energy Commodity Services

Energy  Commodity  Services (ECS) includes the combined  reporting  of
Entergy-Koch L.P. and Entergy's wholesale power development  business,
Entergy  Wholesale Operations (EWO).  ECS recorded a loss  of  $(0.01)
per  share in second quarter 2002 compared to earnings of $0.14 in the
same period last year.  This loss reflects the impact of restructuring
costs  in  the power development business recorded during the quarter.
Operational  earnings were also lower in second quarter 2002  compared
to  the  same period in 2001, $0.10 per share compared to  $0.14,  due
primarily to lower income from the trading business.  As was the  case
in  first quarter 2002, the income sharing mechanisms that are part of
the Entergy-Koch partnership agreement allocated substantially all  of
the  partnership's  income to Entergy in the second  quarter  of  this
year.

Entergy-Koch  Trading, a subsidiary of Entergy-Koch L.P.,  contributed
lower  operational  earnings primarily due to low  market  volatility,
particularly  in  the  power market, and lower  profitability  on  gas
trading,  compared to second quarter 2001.  As of the  end  of  second
quarter 2002, Entergy-Koch expected 31 percent of its trading book  to
be  converted to cash by year end 2002 and 73 percent by  the  end  of
2003.   Eighty-four percent of the fair market value of Entergy-Koch's
mark-to-market  portfolio  is  based on  actively-quoted  prices.   In
addition, Entergy-Koch diligently manages counterparty risks with more
than  90  percent  of  its  trading book tied to  counterparties  with
investment grade credit ratings and no more than 5 percent of Entergy-
Koch's trading book is represented by a single counterparty.

The  Gulf  South  pipeline realized higher earnings in second  quarter
2002 through slightly higher volumes of gas transported and higher gas
storage   revenues  as  movements  in  gas  prices  increased  storage
activities.   Volumes  for  second quarter  2002  were  up  2  percent
compared to second quarter 2001.

EWO  recorded an $(0.11) per share special item in second quarter 2002
reflecting asset impairments and restructuring costs at that  business
unit.  The net charge of $(0.11), detailed in Tables 8 and 9, includes
an  offsetting gain of $0.10 recorded on the sale of certain assets in
connection with the restructuring process.

(a) Net revenue increased in second quarter  and  year-to-date  2002
    due  primarily  to the impact of  recording in   current  revenue
    the  previously deferred  revenues at Entergy Arkansas per   the
    Transition  Cost   Account mechanism.   The ice storm  settlement
    agreed  to  with  the Arkansas  Public Service  Commission  authorized
    that the  previously  deferred  amounts  be recorded  as  revenue.
    In  addition, net   revenue  increased  due  to  the impact  of
    higher sales volumes across retail   customer  segments  resulting
    from   some   strengthening   in   the economy.  Also, fluctuations
    in  fuel prices  positively  impacted  unbilled revenue  which  is
    included  in  Other for  the  second quarter and  year-to-date periods.

(b) Net  revenue increased primarily as a result of the inclusion  of
    operations of Indian Point 2 which was acquired in September 2001.
(c) Interest  expense & other charges decreased due to the retirement
    and refinancing of long-term debt and the absence of interest expense
    in  2002 on System Energy Resources, Inc.'s reserve for rate  refund
    which was finalized in late 2001.
(d) Income  statement line items are tax effected  at  the  statutory
    rate.  Any difference between the statutory and effective tax rate is
    reflected in the "Income taxes-other" line.
(e) Taxes  other  than income taxes decreased due  primarily  to  the
    elimination of Entergy Louisiana's franchise tax reserve  associated
    with capital leases in accordance with a recent state court finding.
(f) Depreciation expense increased primarily as a result of revisions
    to certain asset lives and retirement patterns in second quarter 2001
    which  lowered depreciation expense, as well as higher  depreciation
    expense  in  2002 as a result of increasing investment in  property,
    plant, and equipment.
(g) Asset impairments and restructuring charges reflect the impact of
    recording the costs of restructuring the Entergy Wholesale Operations
    business.
(h) Other income (deductions) decreased due primarily to lower Entergy-
    Koch earnings.
(i) Other operation & maintenance expense increased due primarily  to
    Entergy Arkansas' ice storm settlement, $(0.44), prior year's reversal
    of Entergy Arkansas' storm damage expenses $(0.07), and higher nuclear
    and fossil operation and maintenance expenses.  For the year-to-date
    period,  expenses  increased due to lower nuclear insurance  program
    distributions and overall expenses were partially offset by no merger
    related expenses in 2002.
(j) Other operation & maintenance expense increased due primarily  to
    the inclusion of operations of Indian Point 2.
(k) Nuclear  refueling  outage expense increased  due  to  initiating
    amortization of this cost in June 2001 for Pilgrim and Indian Point 3.
(l) Other  income  (deductions)  increased  due  primarily  to   the
    suspension  of  any  goodwill amortization in  accordance  with  new
    accounting rules.
(m) Other  income (deductions) decreased due primarily to the absence
    in  2002  of liquidated damages from Damhead Creek plant  and  lower
    equity in earnings from affiliates, primarily Entergy-Koch.
(n) Interest  and  dividend income decreased due  to  lower  interest
    income  earned given declining deferred fuel balances at Utility  as
    well as lower investment balances at Parent & Other.

Other Performance Highlights

Entergy  generated  $449 million in operating cash in  second  quarter
2002,  an  increase of 8 percent compared to second quarter 2001.   At
the end of second quarter 2002, Entergy had approximately $731 million
of cash and cash equivalents.

Operational net margin was 9.1 percent, its highest level in more than
six  years  and  return on equity remained above 10  percent  for  the
seventh consecutive quarter.

The capital structure ratio remains within Entergy's target range with
a  net  debt ratio of 49 percent. Entergy's credit ratios remain among
the  strongest in the industry.  The current level of cash along  with
significant  borrowing  capacity  continues  to  provide  considerable
financial  flexibility  to  Entergy.   The  off-balance  sheet   debt,
exclusive  of  operating leases, totals less  than  $350  million  and
constitutes only 2 percent of total capitalization.

As  of  the  end  of second quarter 2002, the liquidity shortfall,  as
defined  in  appendix C was $(414) million.  A significant  amount  of
currently maturing long-term debt, approximately $1.1 billion, created
the   current   liquidity  shortfall  at  end   of   second   quarter.
Approximately  $950  million  of  the  maturing  long-term   debt   is
associated with utility debt that matures primarily in the first  half
of  2003.   Financings at the utility were structured  over  the  past
several years to mature in the 2003-2004 timeframe as a result of  the
expectation  that transition to competition would be  at  an  advanced
stage  and  would require significant corporate restructuring.   Given
the  extended  delays in utility deregulation, Entergy  will  actively
pursue refinancing these amounts over the next 12 to 18 months and  is
confident  that  liquidity will return to more  historical  levels  as
refinancings are completed.

Planned Capital Expenditures - 2002-2004

Entergy will continue to invest both in its core utility and wholesale
energy  businesses and in growth opportunities aimed at expanding  and
leveraging the advantages offered by its integrated business strategy.
Over the next three years, Entergy's utility investments will focus on
reliability improvements and customer growth.  Capital investments  in
Entergy's non-utility nuclear business over this same period  are  for
maintenance improvements, power uprates, nuclear fuel procurement, and
the  purchase of the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant which will close  on
July  31,  2002,  in  accordance with the purchase agreement.   Energy
Commodity  Services plans to invest in power projects currently  under
construction,  approximating  600  MW.   Growth  opportunities   could
include  investments  in pipeline, gas storage, nuclear,  as  well  as
additional regulated and/or unregulated generation assets.

Financial Outlook and Earnings Review

"Through  second quarter 2002 we continued to achieve  strong  results
despite nearly daily negative revelations in our sector," said C. John
Wilder, Entergy's chief financial officer.  "Our success is based on a
well-developed, integrated strategy supported by a solid,  disciplined
financial plan.  Our return metrics, credit metrics, and cash position
all continue to be very sound and our growth prospects look promising.
The  first  half of 2002 has been very positive and we are pleased  to
confirm our 2002 operational earnings per share guidance at the  $3.40
to $3.60 range."

Earnings Guidance

Entergy's  2002  earnings  guidance is  detailed  in  Table  13.   Key
assumptions reflected in the earnings ranges are as follows:

- - Approximately  70  percent of 2002 earnings are  expected  from  the
  utility.  Earnings guidance is based on existing rate plans and fuel
  recovery mechanisms.  The incremental increase expected in 2002 is the
  result  of modest operational improvements, the full impact  of  the
  cessation of goodwill amortization, and the assumption of  a  normal
  level of allocated tax benefits from Parent.
- - More  than 20 percent of earnings are expected from Entergy Nuclear,
  where  prices  are set by power purchase agreements that  cover  100
  percent  of  the megawatt hours generated.  The increase in  nuclear
  earnings is expected to be provided by: a full-year's contribution at
  Indian  Point  2; the addition of Vermont Yankee, a 510  MW  nuclear
  acquisition that will close on July 31, 2002; and increased pricing of
  power  sold under the power purchase agreement at Pilgrim.  Capacity
  factor assumption for the overall fleet is 90 to 93 percent, and Fall
  2002 refueling outages are assumed at FitzPatrick, Indian Point 2 and
  Vermont Yankee.
- - Energy  Commodity  Services' guidance is  based  on  a  full  year's
  contribution  from Entergy-Koch at a 50 percent sharing  of  income,
  consistent  with  Entergy's ownership share.  In addition,  guidance
  reflects  adjustments  for no operating losses  at  Saltend  and  no
  liquidated damages from Damhead Creek.  Finally, guidance reflects the
  continued  impact  of  depressed spark spreads on  EWO's  generation
  portfolio.
- - Parent  &  Other's  guidance  is adjusted  for  a  normal  level  of
  allocated tax benefits, as well as reduced levels of interest income
  due to lower investment balances.

Entergy's  2003  earnings  guidance is  detailed  in  Table  15.   Key
assumptions reflected in the earnings ranges are as follows:

- - Approximately  70  percent of 2003 earnings are  expected  from  the
  utility.  Earnings guidance is based on existing rate plans and fuel
  recovery mechanisms.  The incremental increase expected in 2003 is the
  result  of modest rate base increases earning returns in the  11-12%
  range  with  a  full-year  impact of rate actions  in  Arkansas  and
  Mississippi as well as some increase in overall sales growth.
- - More  than 20 percent of earnings are expected from Entergy Nuclear,
  where  prices set by power purchase agreements will average $38/MWh.
  Increases will result from the full year impact of Vermont Yankee, and
  reduced overall operating costs.  Capacity factor assumption for the
  fleet ranges from 93 to 95 percent.  Spring 2003 refueling outages are
  assumed at the Pilgrim and Indian Point 3 units.
- - Energy Commodity Services' guidance is based on contributions from
  Entergy-Koch at a 50 percent sharing of income, consistent with
  Entergy's ownership share.  Modest growth in trading, and pipeline,
  along with savings from the restructured wholesale generation
  business, will add to earnings at ECS.
- - Parent  &  Other's guidance is based on corporate expenses estimated
  at  approximately $30 million partially offset by interest income on
  invested cash.

Table  15  provides Entergy's projection of 2003 operational  earnings
per  share  with 2002 operational earnings guidance mid-point  as  its
data starting point.

Entergy anticipates growing earnings at an average annual rate of 8 to
10  percent  beyond  2003 and has acknowledged  that  such  growth  is
achievable  only if new investments can be made over the next  several
years.    Entergy  continues  to  remain  confident  that   investment
opportunities  will  be  available and as such believes  the  targeted
level of earnings growth is achievable beyond 2003.
